minus-square@FlightyPenguinlinkEnglish3•5 months agoTrue, they went over easy. Well done, GM. Those employees are no longer scrambled. Things are really turning sunny side up.
minus-square@givesomefuckslinkEnglish-2•5 months agoEh. If they were laid off it would depend on contract status and how the severance was paid out for when it changed to headhunting. Plus, I don’t even think this happened same day. If it was between the public announcement and separation date then it’s 100% poaching. Not that it matters at all though, it’s not like it’s illegal, and it barely has negative connotations anymore.
